About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Rachel Garcia's lush, jazz vocals and Thu Tran's swinging, dynamic guitar arrangements flow together effortlessly with lyrical, original songwriting to create The Singer and The Songwriter's signature sound. Their jazz-inspired chemistry and repertoire can be soothing enough for an elegant cocktail hour or relaxed brunch, while their original material is emotionally engaging enough to command the attention of an audience in a theater, house concert or listening room experience. "His guitar shimmies and swings like Django Reinhardt while her voice wraps around each note, swaying in unison like a modern-day Ella Fitzgerald." Debuting at #34 on the CMJ Jazz Top 40 Charts, the duo's first album was critically praised as "diverse, confident, stylish and accomplished" (Americana-UK), "a revelation" (Pittsburgh In Tune) and "an opus worthy of national attention" (Playback: STL). They are currently touring the US in support of their latest release. Of their live show, The Eastsider LA writes: ""Tran's […] colorful playing style paired wonderfully with the dramatic and soulful voice of his partner in crime. It was clear that underneath Garcia's cafe-jazz voice lay a rich, billowing and powerful vocal onslaught. " ALSO AVAILABLE: Ask us about our solo instrumental guitar services!
